    Not 100% positive, but I believe I saw that AJA Airbus ACJ at White Plains yesterday. Seems like HPN had about 3 or 4 Airbus ACJ's parked around the field, but with the rain, and my vantage point, I could not see registrations.

    I just landed at JFK and noted the new Brazilian E-190 heading to 4L for departure. The Qatar-Amiri fleet is also parked around the cargo area and an El Al 762 at the T4 hardstands.

    didnt do any intended spotting, other than from my parents front yard on Monday.


    This evening, Air Force One provided a nice deep bank over my house, headed to JFK about an hour ago.

    Nothing feels better than flipping some steaks and chicken on the grill, sipping a bottle of suds and seeing her swoop over yer house ;)
    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...
    I have a feeling a handle of people are going to be very interested in what I post in the near future.

    Thats right its Wed already He was set to leave between 8 and 9.
    I was walking around today at lunch and saw two PD copters, one of the Agustas and the Command & Control Bell 412, working around just south of me around the Upper 40s.
    Pres must have been on the move as they made their way slowly uptown. Took a walk over to the Regency Hotel Park/61st to check out all the security. East 61st closed to vehicles and you can walk on the south side of the street and check out all the security as they use it as a staging point for Secret Service/NYPD/Homeland security you name it. I love checking all these guys out.

    Sounds like Marine One is grounded due to WX. POTUS moving to JFK via the Belt Pkwy!
    Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
    All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.
    I trust you are not in too much distress. —Captain Eric Moody, British Airways Flight 9

    what? they don't have synthetic (IR) vision on that thing?
    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    Must be the fog. No heavy weather around. Wonder how long the SS gave the PD a heads up to set up the route? And not sure but would Triboro/GCP/VW be faster?

    Quite a few VIP movements this morning at JFK. The Kazakhstan 330 and Czech 319 just departed while the South Korean 747 and French 330 are parked at the triple hangars. There's an additional Qatar 330, A7-HJJ, as well.

    The Czech 319. Possibly the most beautiful livery out there.
    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...
